The food was outstanding, service was a little hectic since they were extremely busy but the staff was still amazing. Definitely recommend this restaurant.

Food and service we’re great. They overbooked their reservations though, and our table was near the entrance where everyone was congregating to complain. Distracted from enjoying the evening.

The food was good, the grilled octopus was amazing, the fried calamari was mediocre, but the lady who looks like she owns the place, she was pretty weird. She was making people rush to order, making gestures in front of them, she was tense in general. The only highlight of the night was the grilled octopus, but I won’t come back.

We enjoyed the focaccia that was brought to our table when we sat down. The orchietta was delicious . We enjoyed our cheese and meat platter as an appetizer. Lovely atmosphere.

Nice setting and ambience overall, but the restaurant seemed to be lacking organisation. Nobody seemed to be looking after a section/ tables of their own. Didn’t have one of our first choice mains, but the replacements were fine.

A busy night, we were asked to come back in 15 minutes as they weren’t ready at their opening time. We were seated in the back and while waiting for our food, a Street vendor approached us and wanted money for a bracelet. We were trapped and gave him $2 to leave us alone. Why was this allowed in a nice restaurant? The food was good, as was the wine.

The food was absolutely amazing! There was a mix up on our pasta dishes but they immediately remedied the situation. The zucchini starter with stratciatelli cheese was my favorite antipasto ever.
